>The procedure for B and Li loading of nuclear emulsions NIKFI K of 100 mu , which are to be used for neutron flux measurements, and the treatment of the loaded plates were studied. The plates were soaked for an hour at 24 C in solutions with variable concentrations of B and Li, 40 to 65 mg of B/cm/sup 3/ of solution and 0.8 to 10 mg of Li/cm/sup 3/ of solution. The pH varied between 6.6 and 6.8. The absorption cunve for B and Li in these conditions was determined, and the variation of performance of the emulsion was studied as a function of the concentration. Plates were obtained containing 10 to 120 mg of B and 3.5 to 20 mg of Li/cm/sup 3/ of emulsion. The plates could be used for the relaiive determination of a neutron flux. A calibration with a standard source was necessary for absolute determinations. (tr-auth)
